While at Coolidge Corner I came across Irving’s Toy and Card Shop on Harvard Street. It’s been there since 1939 and it’s run by Ethel A. Weiss, a 99-year-old local who leaves “heartfelt messages” and notes on the door for her customers, including some very welcome advice on how to be old and still be happy.
